Patch 2- inquistor's facial features (freckles/scars) gone after patch 2
After downloading patch 2 most of the characters got shinny hair and the freckles my inquisitor had are missing. anyone having the same or related issue?
Forum Discussion
Yeah. I've been having the same issue. Hopefully there will be a simple hotfix to revert out Toons back to their original created forms... I really miss my freckles and scars... they're defining features :catsad:
Note: Also all saves are affected, even loading up old ones or other characters that had freckles ha.
Maybe they'll throw something in to edit appearance instead of a hotfix? Who knows.
Here is the solution until the hotfix is out. According to the upcoming hotfix notes, using low settings will not fix the complexion issue.
POST FROM BIOWARE:
Hey Everyone,
We're working on getting a hot fix out for the PC graphics issue as soon as possible. In the meantime, here is a workaround you can try:
To start, make sure the quality setting you choose is equal to the setting set for Mesh Quality inside Options>Graphics
You will need to add a new command line parameter. To do this:
Through Origin:
Right click on the Dragon Age Inquisition title
Go to game properties
Type the command line parameter in the Command Line Properties box.
Through shortcut:
Right Click Shortcut
Go to Properties
Under target go to the end of the field and type the command line parameter into the box
Once there, add the following command line parameter: -ShaderSystem.ShaderQualityLevel <quality setting>
In this instance, <quality setting> should be one of the following:
Ultra
High
Medium
Low
An example of how to set your quality to high would be: -ShaderSystem.ShaderQualityLevel High
Please note that once the hot fix is out, you will need to go back in and remove this workaround from your command line.
It’s also important to note that pre-patch 2, all users on PC were being forced to use the Ultra shader quality. This means that those of you playing on lower settings will notice a decrease in quality, particularly players using low or medium settings.
To achieve the same visuals as pre-patch, users on lower settings will need to change their settings to Ultra, which should likewise be used in conjunction with Ultra mesh quality. Mismatching the mesh and shader settings will result in other visual artifacts like overly shiny hair.
Please be aware that changing settings to Ultra may impact performance on some machines.
Sorry about any frustration this may have caused.
